I apologize if that came across as a quantity thing. I mean as proportions. (Though obviously true quantity wise as well.)
The percentage of people in extreme poverty, percentage of dead children etc, life has, by almost every conceivable metric has improved greatly for the overwhelming majority.
Again, I strongly recommend Hans Rosling’s Factfulness, it’s a wild eye opener.
